Tips
• First check whether there is a label with ironing
instructions in the garment.
Always follow the ironing instructions on the
garment label.
• If these instructions are missing but you do know
what kind of fabric the garment is made of, consult
the table for the recommended ironing
temperatures.
• This table is only valid for plain fabrics. If some kind
of finish (gloss, crinkle, relief etc.) has been applied
to the material, it is best ironed at a low
temperature.
• Sort the laundry according to ironing temperature
before you start: put wool with wool, cotton with
cotton, etc.
• The iron heats up more quickly than it cools down.
As a result, it is best to start with the articles that
need to be ironed at the lowest temperature, such
as those made of synthetic fibres.Then continue
with the garments requiring a higher ironing
temperature.
• If the fabric consists of various kinds of fibres, always
select the temperature required by the most
delicate fibre, i.e. the lowest temperature. If, for
example, an article consists of 60% polyester and
40% cotton, it should be ironed at the temperature
indicated for polyester (
1 ) and without steam.
If you do not know what kind(s) of fabric(s) the
article is made of, determine the appropriate
temperature by ironing a piece of material that will
